Can anyone in the UK make use of two sticks of Corsair Vengeance 8Gb DDR3 1866 RAM?

I bought a 32Gb pack (4 x 8Gb sticks) thinking that I could utilise the extra RAM in some way as an upgrade from DDR3 16Gb 1333 GSkill.

Unfortunately my Gigabyte board will support 32Gb in all four sockets but not at 1866 speed. Also, Windows 7 can't use all 32Gb and it wasn't worth setting up a RAMdisc since I already have an SSD drive. So I have gone back to just two of the Corsair sticks giving 16Gb at the 1866 speed after tinkling with the BIOS. Impetuosity is one of my worst traits!

So, rather than allow it to gather dust I have the two new Corsair 1866 sticks and also the original two 8Gb 1333 Gskill sticks to offer.

If of interest please PM me. I don't want to make anything out of it so any reasonable offer will be acceptable + carriage.

Regards all
